att_abstract={{Despite the increasing popularity of Infrastructure-as-a-
service (IaaS) clouds, providers have been very slow in
adopting a large number of innovative technologies, such
as live VM migration, dynamic resource management,
and VM replication. In this paper, we argue that the rea-
sons are not only technical but also fundamental, due
to lack of transparency and conflict of interest between
providers and customers. We present our vision incep-
tion, a nested IaaS cloud architecture to overcome this
impasse. Inception clouds are built entirely on top of
the resources acquired from today’s clouds, and provide
nested VMs to end users. We discuss the benefits, use
cases, and challenges of inception clouds, and present
our network design and prototype implementation.}},
